A tribute to Kirk - he's riding with Jesus now!
Seraphim Serenade
by Melody Ringo
Brow once furrowed with pain and care
Now relaxed, no more burdens to bear Peace now, only peace is there Weathered hands reach out to touch Hands that once loved so much Now hold the Master's hand as such Silver hairs, lay loose upon the bed Each one shines upon weary head Strands of light, transparent thread Body weak, ravaged by disease Broken vessel, seeks sweet release Once bound spirit at last He frees. Baptized in beloved's tears Remembering oh so many years Times of joy and times of fears Come O Seraphim, lead now this one Into the realm of angels and the Son Whilst I dream of our eternal life to come |
This one's for you, Kirk & Kelly! I wrote this one just a few days before we learned of Kirk's illness. I didn't know at the time who it was for - but God knew!
